Elephant Bank
« on: December 07, 2014, 10:59:43 pm »
My sister has commissioned my to make this bank.  She is going to be giving this as a shower gift to a friend that is having a girl.  The bank is 3 3/4 in wide x 6 3/4 tall and 9 1/2 long.  The paint is acrylic and it was top coated with shellac.

Well done! I am curious, what did you use to cutout the bank hole being 3 1/2" thick. Or is it 2 or 3 parts glued together?
